Højdepunkter

Discover the New York story behind one of the 20th century’s most complex figures. This guided walking tour explores how J. Robert Oppenheimer’s years on the Upper West Side shaped his ideas, ambitions, and the world-changing science that followed. Walk through the neighborhoods, institutions, and meeting places where intellectual debate, politics, and innovation converged during the New Deal and wartime eras. Learn how the city’s energy, ideals, and contradictions influenced the man often called the “father of the atomic bomb.”

About New York

New York City pakker skyskrabere, berømte museer, Broadway og snesevis af egne kvarterer ind i fem bydele, der summer dag og nat.

Manhattan er det klassiske første stop. Times Square gløder over teaterdistriktet, Central Park strækker sig i blok efter blok mellem Upper East Side og Upper West Side, og Empire State Building, Chrysler Building og Rockefeller Center former Midtowns skyline. I Downtown ligger 9/11-mindesmærket, Wall Street og Brooklyn Bridge tæt sammen, og både sejler forbi Frihedsgudinden til Ellis Island.

Top-ranked sights in New York: Statue of Liberty, Central Park, National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
